Today was the day for imbeciles. The day where no one had one freaking clue. Why would you shop for a tablecloth if you have NO IDEA the size of your table, and don't want to estimate? Why would you then get mad at your husband over the phone about it? Oh, and if we don't sell something, don't get mad at me about it. Also, don't insist that we "must have" a table pad which is both heat proof and water proof when no less than three employees told you we do not carry such a thing. Don't run off while I'm helping you when you see another employee so that you can ask her the same question. Then come flying back and say "so where is *alternate fabric*" in an impatient tone. When I say I can show you, don't say "Good! I was getting frustrated!" Um, yeah, me too. Finally, after all this, don't tell me you're in a hurry because you have an appointment!
Don't have a a coupon on your phone which is an online coupon. Or one which has no bar code or expiration date. I'm 99% sure that coupon expired yesterday. I hope so much that you got the manager who will tell you no. How could we possibly use a coupon which just says the discount amount but no other information? Might as well be written in crayon. And don't get snotty about how you "don't think it's right" that we wouldn't honor that so-called coupon. Don't tell me you're from up north, that is not a magic spell to scare us into giving you a discount. If you're going to be rude, don't also be super needy. None of us want to help you if you just get pissed at anything we say. Our counters are not your personal shopping space! Don't bring tons of stuff and just dump it. Repeatedly. Even after I pointedly got you a shopping cart and put all your stuff into it.
Oh, and while I'm helping the tablecloth pad lady, these really awesome customers come up and my coworker gets to help them. They are so great. We know their names, and even if they get the really new employee who is slooooooooow and doesn't know anything, they have never been impatient or said a bad word about anyone.
(I could have made a separate Roadkill post, but I feel like it's a part of my SC day, but I will move it if necessary.) Don't honk at me because you can't read that YOU HAVE A YIELD SIGN! I normally avoid this intersection like a politician avoids a lie detector, but I treated myself to an expensive coffee and had to go this way. I've included a pic so you can see the yield sign. I was in that right hand lane (the one with all the cars), and another car was driving where the yield sign is, and honked because I didn't yield. I am not proud of the gestures I made. In fact, I hardly ever do that because I worry that it will provoke road rage, but today I was just so pissed that I didn't even care. Even now I wish I hadn't, so in case I stop posting, the guy in the tan older model Corolla killed me.
